Besides playing a chick, the actress is active in other ways as well — often for film roles.

Back in 2021, Pfeiffer posted a video on Instagram of herself hitting the gym in preparation for her role in the third installment Ant Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. Pfeiffer made her MCU debut in 2018 continuation The ant man and the waspstarring Janet van Dyne (aka the original Wasp) — who, like Ant-Man, also has the ability to change her size.

“Janet van Dyne is entering the Quantum Realm this summer. I’ll be ready,” she said in the cheeky video, which also shows her running on a fast-paced treadmill.

“Damn, you’re inspiring! Thanks for the incentive to get up and get started😊”, wrote one user. Another person said: “Amazing! I’m tired just watching you run!”

A few fans even asked to see the star’s entire fitness routine.
